John Feinstein, longtime sports columnist for “The Washington Post” and prolific author of popular sports books, died at 69 years old.



Steve Inskeep, host:

Sorry to tell you that John Feinstein died. He covered sports for the Washington Post and appeared regularly on this program. I just did a research and I discovered that John and I were talking in the air over 100 times.

(Soundbite of Archived NPR Broadcast)

Inskeep: We are going to talk about these teams and even more with the commentator John Feinstein, who joins us again. John, hello.

John Feinstein: Hello, Steve.

Inskeep: I just want to mention, for people who …

This man had a talent for book titles. Once, he spent an entire season following the explosive basketball coach of the University of Indiana, Bobby Knight, and that became his book “A season on the Brink”. The title of his book on the Golf cited Mark Twain – “A good spoiled walk”. His book on the Navy Army Football match was “a civil war”. For all his writing, all his work, he has never lost his enthusiasm – as when John spoke of the NCAA basketball tournament.

(Soundbite of Archived NPR Broadcast)

Feinstein: A match will end, and you are looking on the dashboard, and another match is equal with two minutes to do. And you will look at the end of this, and you can have a spectacular finish after another.

Inskeep: And he would follow them all. It would have been right for John to see a few more tournaments.

John Feinstein died at 69 years old.
